Fuck No! ScoMo!
Nothing like a little sing-a-long to get some stuff off ya chest right? Here’s a song I wrote about Captain Coal, the Prime Minister for Mines and Detention Centres, and his government’s heroic stances on Aborigines, refugees, queers and the environment. The words are below in case you want to spread the love, or you can download a pdf of the words with guitar chords here.
"FUCK NO! SCO-MO!"
CHORUS:
Fuck no ScoMo we don't want coal
A fossil fuelled economy is such a stupid goal
Put planet first and people next and corporations last
And shove that lump of coal right up your arse!
I am the new project Prime Minister and I now make the rules,
I love Jesus Christ and lumps and of coal and private schools.
A trophy on my shelf tells me that I stopped the boats
And my electorate is 'The Shire' so I get all the racists' votes
[CHORUS]
It's terra nullius! No need to fuss - there's no treaty here.
If I push aside the genocide my conscience can be clear
I gave them Tony Abbott which proves how much I care
They should quit their lifestyle choices and Advance Australia Fair
[Fair means 'white skin' you know!] SPOKEN
[CHORUS]
Don't talk to me of "refugees" they're illegal immigrants mate!
Chuck 'em all in concentration camps and lock the gate!
News reports of torture needed to be addressed
So we gagged all the staff and banished the press!
[CHORUS]
As for Queers - poor dears - they're just confused.
Try gay conversion therapy, it's Jesus approved
Your Safe Schools program is turning children gay
Please take your equal marriage and go away
[Pray the gay away!] SPOKEN
[CHORUS]
I don't believe that climate change is caused by fossil fuels.
Who cares what all the scientists say it's us that make the rules.
We need the mines and industry to build our nation
Let's flog the whole environment to some foreign corporation
[CHORUS]
Fuck no ScoMo we don't want coal
A fossil fuelled economy is such a stupid goal
Put planet first and people next and corporations last . . .
And shove that lump of coal
Better lubricate your hole!
Shove that lump of coal right
up . . . your . . . arse!
